1.An experimental study on the alteration of thermal enhancement ratio by combination of split dose hyperthermia irradiation
Journal of the Korean Radiological Society 1983;19(2):289-302
The study was undertaken to evaluate the alteration of thermal enhancement ratio as a function of timeintervals between two split dose hyperthermias followed by irradiation. For the experiments, 330 mice were dividedinto 3 groups; the first, 72 mice were used to evaluate the heat reaction by single dose hyperthermia and heatresistance by split dose hyperthermia, the second, 36 mice were used to evaluate the radiation reaction byirradiation only, and the third, 222 mice were used for TER observation by comibination of single dosehyperthermia and irradiation , and TER alteration by combination of split dose hyperthermia and irradiation. Foreach group the skin reaction score of mouse tail was used for observation and evaluation of the results of heatand irradiation. The results obtained are summarized as follows; 1. The heating time resulting 50% necrosis(ND 50)was 101 minutes in 43degrees centigrade and 24 minutes in 45degrees centigrade hyperthermia, which indicated thatthere is reciprocal proportion between temperature and heating time. 2. Development of heat resistance wasobserved by split dose hyperthermia. 3. The degree of skin reaction by irradiation only was increasedporportionally as a function of radiation dose, and calculated radiation dose corresponding to skin score 1.5(D1.5) was 4,137 rads. 4. Obtained thermal enhancement ratio by combination of single dose hyperthermia andirradiation was increased proportionally as a function of heating time. 5. Thermal enhancement ratio was decreasedby combination of split dose hyperthermia and irradiation , which was less intense and lasted longer thandevelopment of heat resistance. In summary, these studies indicate that the alteration of thermal enhancementratio has influence on heat resistance by split dose hyperthermia and irradiation.

The determination of the degree and ability of recovery of obstructive hydronephrosis is important in treatment and prediction of prognosis. Among the various methods in determination of the status of kidney, intravenous pyelography is the most important tool to evaluate the morphological and functional changes of kidney in vivo. The purpose of this experiment was the determination of process and recoverability of hydronephrosis depend on duration of unilateral uretreal obstruction. For the experiment, 32 rats were divided into 2 groups; the first group of 12 rats were used to determine the process of hydronephrosis during 1 to 4 weeks of unilateralureteral ligation and the second group of 20 rats were used to determine the recoverability of hydronephrotic kidney depend on same duration of ureteral ligation following relief of ligation. Intravenous pyelography as undertaken and renal angiography, gross and microscopic examination were added. The results obtained are summarized as follows; 1. Kidney enlargement and pelvic dilatation were progressively increased with a relation to duration of ureteral obstruction until 4 weeks. 2. Renal excretory function is not impaired until 3 weeks obstruction, but rapidly impaired to nonfunctioning in 4 weeks obstruction. 3. Renal recovery was possible following relief of ureteral ligation within 3 weeks of ureteral obstruction, but histopathological and functional recovery were impossible in 4 weeks of ureteral ligation. 4. There is no direct correlation between duration of obstruction and recoverability following relief within 3 weeks of uretral obstruction. 5. Intravenous pyelographyis a simple and accurate method to determine the degree of obstructive hydronephrosis and to evaluate morphological and functional recovery of kidney following relief of obstruction.

Prior to the introduction of CT, the clinical and radiological diagnosis of the intraventicular hemorrhage inliving patients was difficult. C.T. scanning is an invaluable investigation provding the rapid and noninvasivediagnosis of intracerebral and intraventricular hemorrhage. It reliably demonstrated the presence and distributionof fresh blood within the ventricular system. CT is also useful as a surgical guidance and in the evaluation offate of the hematoma by easily performable follow-up studies. We reviewed 3 cases of intraventricular hemorrhagein CT in the departement of radiology of Ewha Womans University hospital during the period from August, 1982 toAugust, 1983. The results were as follows: 1. The most patients were encountered in the 5th decade and the male tofemale ratio was 1.2:1. 2. Hypertension was the main cause of the intraventricular hemorrhage; 18 out of 31patients. Remaning 13 patients were caused by hypoxia, aneurysm, Moya Moya disease, coagulation defect, trauma andundetermined etiology. 3. 18 out of 31 patients showed hemorrhage in the lateral ventricles only and allventricles in 10 patients. 4. 28 out of 31 patients showed associated with intracranial hematoma: Those wereintracerebral hematomas in 16 patients, intracerebral hematoma with subarachnoid hemorrhage in 4 patients andextracerebral hematoma in 2 patients. 5. Outcome was assessed using the Glasgow scale. According to them the totalmortality rate was 54.8%, however, 32.2% of patients retured to normal or minor disablity. Patients, who hadhypertension and markded degree of hemorrhage in the ventricular systems had a poor outcome. Patients with onlyventricular hemorrhage had better outcome than associated intracranial hematoma. 6. 16 out of 31 patients weretreated by surgical methods and 15 out of 31 patients by conservative methods. 75% of patients were died inconservative treatment. 7. Conclusively, causes, degree of intraventricular hemorrhage and associatedintraventricular hematoma play an important role in outcome. And surgical treatment was beneficial in only a smallselective number of cases in intraventricular hemorrhage.

Most of cerbrovascular disease are composed of vascular occlusive changes & hemorrhage. Now a day, the computed tomograhy is the best way for evaluation of cerebrovascular disease including detection of nature,location ,& associated changes. This study includes evaluation of CT of 70 patients with cerebrovascular disease during the period of 10 months from April. 1983 to Feb. 1984 in Department of Radiology, Ewha Womans University Hospital. The results were as follows; 1. Age distribution of the total 70 patients was broad ranging from 25years to 79 years. 78.6% of patients were over the age of 50. The male and female sex ratio was 1.4:1. 2. 4 out of70 patients were normal and 66 patients revealed abnormal on C.T, findings; those were intracranial hemorrhage(28patients), cerebral infarction,(34 patients) and brain atrophy(4 patients). 3. In cases of cerebral infarction,the cerebral hemisphere was most common sit of lesion(28 cases), and next was basal ganglia (2 cases). Most of the infarcts in cerebral hemisphere were located in the parietal and temporal lobes. 4. In cases of intracranial hemorrhage, the basal ganglia was most common site of lesion(15 cases). The next common site was cerebral hemisphere (9 cases). 6 patients of all intracranial hemorrhage were combined with intraventricular hemorrhage.Ratio of right and left was 2:3. 5. In patients with motor weakness of hemiparesis, more common findings on CT scan were cerebral infarction. In case with hemiplegia, more common CT findings were intracerbral hemorrhage. 6.Of the 40 cases thought to be cerebral infarction intitially by clinical findings and spinal tap. 8 cases (20.0%)were proved to be cerebral hemorrhage by the CT scan. However, of the 22 cases thought to be cerbral hemorrhage,initially, only two cases (9.0%) were cerebral infarction.

Benign tumors of the mendible are uncommon lesions. That were classifed into odontogenic tumors and nonodontogenic tumors. Author reviewed the radiological evaluation and pathological microscopic finding from 33 benign tumors of the mandible that were comfirmed by the biopsy during last 10 years in Dental Clinics, Ewha Womans University Hospital and Seoul Natinal University Dental Hospital. Following results were obainend; 1.Benign tumors of the mandible were classified into odontogenic (66.7%) and non-odontogenic tumors (33%). 2. The range of the age distribution was between 6 years and 67 years old. The commonest age group was the second decade(39.4%). 3. There was no difference to sex distribution. 4. The most frequent locatio was the body of the mandible (42.4%). 5. Radiographic findings were relatively characteristic in odontogenic tumors rather thannon-odontogenic tumors. 1) Radiolucent cystic lesions-ameloblastoma, odontogneic myxoma, odontogneic fibroma,aneurysmal bone cyst and neurofibroma. 2) Radiopaque mass lesions-odontoma, cementoma and osteoma. 3) Mixed patterns-ossifying fibroma, cementifying fibroma, calcifying odontogenic epithelial tumor and hemangioma. It was concluded that the radiographic examination was of value to diagnose the benign tumos of tee mandible in symptomless patients.

The congenital cystic adenomatoid malformation of the lung is an unusual pulmonary entity, and usuallysymptomatic in infancy with sign of resiratory distress. This abnormality consists of enlarged, multicystic lobewith smooth-walled cysts of variable sized, which can communicate with major bronchi through malformed air passagethat usually lacks in cartilage. Roentgenographic findings are three types. First type is multicystic patternshowing various sized of cysts and causing mediastinal shift with pulmonary herniation. Second type is dominantcystic pattern underlying multicystic lesion, Third type is solid homogenous mass. Prompt surgical resection ischoice of treatment. We recently experienced a case of congenital cystic adenomatoid malformation of the lung of27 day female in fant and report with reviwe of literatures.
